MTN Group Limited - Announcement to shareholders ("MTN") (formerly M-CELL LIMITED) (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 1994/009584/06) Share code MTN ISIN ZAE000042164 Announcement to shareholders Shareholders are referred to the announcement of MTN"s Preliminary Reviewed Results for the year ended 31 March 2003 which were released on SENS on Thursday, 19 June 2003 and in the press today. Due to a typesetting error, the paragraph headed "Prospects" incorrectly stated the following: "MTN South Africa is projected to grow their contribution to subscriber and earnings growth. The international operations are expected to maintain strong positive cash flows." These sentences ought to have stated: "The international operations are projected to grow their contribution to subscriber and earnings growth. MTN South Africa is expected to maintain strong positive cash flows." The "Prospects" paragraph should therefore read as follows: "Assuming current market conditions continue, the Board is confident that the Group"s operations will show satisfactory earnings growth in the year ahead. The international operations are projected to grow their contribution to subscriber and earnings growth. MTN South Africa is expected to maintain strong positive cash flows. In the face of a maturing local market, management is implementing strategies to optimize performance. The Group is exploring value enhancing activities, in line with its vision of becoming the leading provider of communication services on the continent." MTN regrets any confusion that may have been caused. Sandton 20 June 2003 Date: 20/06/2003 10:49:05 AM Supplied by www.sharenet.co.za Produced by the JSE SENS Department
